The wife of the power minister's family

Xu Jing was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "We understand, you can go down first."

After Chef Sun left, Yao Shaoyin quickly turned to Xu Jing and said: "If Sister-in-law Wu really rejects men, then she is unlikely to have contact with Song Langjun and Qiao Langjun. However, there is no direct evidence to prove this... "

Xu Jing thought of what the foot shop clerk said to her on the day she returned to Xijing, and said quietly: "I think Chef Sun's feeling should be right. Apart from her, the only people who come into contact with Sister-in-law Wu here are some men. Men's It's normal to be less considerate than Chef Sun, and Chef Sun is the one who has the most contact with Sister-in-law Wu, so she will be more sensitive to some changes in Sister-in-law Wu.

Just now, she mentioned a very crucial point - Sister-in-law Wu suddenly changed from going to Famen Temple to Jingyuan Temple about three years ago. If Sister-in-law Wu really changed, it must be something that happened during that time, Yao Shaoyin , please send another person to Baiyu Village to find out if the people in the village know what happened to Sister-in-law Wu during that time. "

Yao Shaoyin immediately said: "It's no problem!"

"Next..."

As Xu Jing spoke, she stood up and said, "We are going to Jingyuan Temple."

I have to go to Jingyuan Temple.

Yao Shaoyin paused and said, "What about Dali Temple? Let's not care about it?"

"Let's go to Jingyuan Temple first. If it turns out that the deaths of Sister-in-law Wu and Jiang Sanniang have nothing to do with Qinghui Garden, why should we bother taking care of Dali Temple?"

Xu Jing raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Just let Wang Shaoqing and the others investigate."

Yao Shaoyin: "..."

He felt inexplicably that there was a bit of schadenfreude in Madam Xu's words.

If the deaths of the two deceased people really had nothing to do with Qinghui Garden, Wang Shaoqing kept circling around Qinghui Garden, and deliberately ignored them and took away the two people related to the case before them, so that they could be found later. Knowing the truth, Wang Shaoqing would be furious to death?

Of course, it has nothing to do with him whether Wang Shaoqing will be angry to death.

Anyway, his mission is to find out the truth of the case~

Jingyuan Nunnery is located south of Xijing City. When they went to Jingyuan Nunnery, the Yamen sent by Yao Shaoyin to Baiyu Village also came back. They saluted them and said: "Yao Shaoyin, Madam Xu, I just just When I went to Baiyu Village and asked the villagers what happened to Sister-in-law Wu three years ago, their faces immediately became very strange, as if they were unwilling to tell the villain about this matter.

The villain pressed them with words that would hinder the investigation, so they reluctantly said it. It turns out that about three years ago, the eldest son of the mayor of Baiyu Village once... broke into Sister-in-law Wu's house at night with the intention of violating her. Sister-in-law Wu ran away from the house like crazy, attracting many people in the village.

Sister-in-law Wu was very emotionally unstable at that time. She held a pair of scissors in her hand and said she was going to the Xijing government office to report the crime, and then committed suicide to prove her innocence. Fortunately, their village chief was a sensible person, so he beat her eldest son severely. He also begged Sister-in-law Wu not to report to the official, because he would drive this evil boy out of Baiyu Village and would not let him appear in front of Sister-in-law Wu again.

Later, other people in the village used Qu Langjun to persuade Sister-in-law Wu, and Sister-in-law Wu put down her scissors and agreed not to report it to the official. Afterwards, she begged the villagers not to tell Qu Langjun about this matter, as long as her son could study well. No matter what kind of grievance she suffered, she was not afraid. The village chief of Baiyu Village also kept his promise. After that day, he drove his eldest son to his eldest brother's house in the north. His eldest son has not returned yet.

Because the village chief also asked the villagers not to tell the story, it has since become a taboo in the village.

People in the village said that after that incident, Sister-in-law Wu's temperament became more withdrawn than before, and she especially didn't like to associate with men. "This is in line with what Chef Sun said.

Xu Jing couldn't help but sigh secretly.

The so-called widow has a lot of disputes at her door.

I didn't expect something like this to happen back then.

But according to what the foot shop clerk said, Sister-in-law Wu must have encountered more disgusting things than the village eldest son’s in recent years, but that one was particularly serious.

After listening to the yamen servant's report, Xu Jing raised her head and looked at Jingyuan Temple, which was standing quietly at the top of the stairs, and said, "Let's go in and take a look."

Now, the chance that Sister-in-law Wu and their deaths are related to Qinghui Garden has been further reduced.

The possibility that the murderer is in Jingyuan Nunnery has greatly increased.

Neither Xu Jing nor Yao Shaoyin wanted to alert the enemy, so after discussing it, they separated and walked in pretending to be ordinary pilgrims. Yao Shaoyin went in first, followed by Xu Jing.

Jingyuan Temple is far less majestic than Famen Temple, and the layout inside is more exquisite and unique. Generally, the people who come here are women, and even if there are men, they usually come with their own female relatives.

As soon as Xu Jing walked into the outer courtyard of Jingyuan Nunnery, she came face to face with a little nun who was dressed in blue-gray and sea blue with a delicate face. Xu Jing quickly greeted her and said with a smile: "This little nun, I am the first When I came back here, I heard that the Bodhisattva here is very spiritual. I wonder if there is anything I need to pay attention to when I visit?"

The little nun looked like she was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, with a bit of immaturity in her eyebrows, but she acted serious, and after performing a Buddhist salute to Xu Jing, she said: "This benefactor, if you just want to pay homage, , just enter our main hall and follow the usual procedures. If you want to listen to Master Xuanyin's sermon, you have to wait until Youshi (five o'clock in the afternoon)."

Before coming, Xu Jing did some research and found out that the current host of Jingyuan Temple is Mrs. Xuanyin.

After a pause, the little nun suddenly said: "But... our Jingyuan Temple is on the mountain, and there are many paths leading to the mountains and forests around us. Please be careful and don't wander around. It's not a big deal if you get lost. It's not good if it's dangerous. More than a month ago, one of our benefactors who lived in the nunnery accidentally walked into the mountain forest and finally lost her footing and fell off the cliff. If it hadn't snowed that day and there were her footprints on the snow, We don’t know when we will find her yet.”

Xu Jing's heart skipped a beat.

Snow, footprints, slipping and falling off the cliff...

No wonder! No wonder! Last night, she asked Yao Shaoyin to check if there were any similar cases of women committing suicide recently. Yao Shaoyin said there was no such case. Either the relatives and friends around him watched the deceased commit suicide, or it was a man who committed suicide. It was not easy to find out. The case of a woman who hanged herself happened more than three months ago, and apart from the fact that it was also suicide, there was no other similarity between that case and Jiang Sanniang’s case!

It turns out that there was indeed a similar case before Sister-in-law Wu, but it was not defined as a suicide case, but was defined as a simple accident, so Yao Shaoyin did not find out!

This is indeed the beginning of Sister-in-law Wu and Jiang Sanniang's journey to hell!

The murderer is in this Jingyuan Temple!
